As I said, I thought this would be natural, and since Mars is 12 and has 100 taijutsu, I'd expect him to put all his effort in Tai, rather than Gen, which is how it seemed, since he put 0 in genjutsu, Kage or not, I only judge on the stats. And don't think I'm angry, I appreciate the feedback <3 really helps me look at how the people look at it.

Konohuro Kirishima, a famous clansman of the aforementioned, was sitting in a bar in the Hidden Hill enjoying himself - when to his dismay; the ANBU appeared next to him.


“What do the kage’s dogs have to do with me?” He asked as he slowly creeped his right hand towards the other, where he concealed his Okatana.
 “It would be wise of you to not draw that, we’re only here to carry a message from the Kage” the mysterious man to the left put his hands on the table to show that he was not planning an ambush with weapons.


“The Kage asks that you follow us outside of the bar to his office, since he is busy with work, and well, he’s not allowed into the bar; we’ll be waiting outside.” The two ANBU agents disappeared.


“The Kage, huh? What could he want with me? Does he perhaps know why I’m here?” Konohuro thought as he got up and started to walk towards the exit, “I won’t be getting much info if the Kage catches wind of me, seems I’ll have to act a bit.”


The ANBU don’t roam around on the streets, so Konohuro had to go to the Kage building on his own, but he could feel someone watching him, and the building wasn’t too hard to find, seeing as it was the biggest one in the whole village, he quickly dashed to the entrance, and up the stairs, one he had it in his sights.


He decided he should knock on the door, since just busting in would not fit a noble of his stature, however the door was already ajar, “Perhaps someone forgot to close it?”, Konohuro knocked on the door anyway, and waited for a response.


But there wasn’t any, so he decided to peek in, “I’m sorry, am I interrupting something?” he said as he slowly walked in the door, but there was no one there. “Hmm? Perhaps he went to the bathroo-” Konohuro was interrupted by a short assailant, who quickly burst in through the doors and hit his neck.


POOF


“Shit, a shadow clone huh?” the man said as the smoke cleared. “Not quite what I was expecting when your servants said you wanted to chat” he was surprised by a voice behind him, which belonged to none other than Konohuro, who was leaning on the wall next to the entrance to the Kage’s office.


“I suppose we’re doing this the hard way then, Kage-sama?” Konohuro unsheated his sword, and opened his right eye. “Tch, I should’ve expected you to be prepared” Mars expressed his annoyance in his tone of speech, “I’m afraid that’s what happens when you lack actual battle experience, no matter how strong you are.” he walked into the office once again, this time holding his Okatana up in a defensive stance, while Mars took out a kunai in one hand


Konohuro was the first to attack, he spun around and put all of his strength into a huge swing towards Mars’ unarmed side, trying to use his range to his advantage, but Mars was faster than he expected, but not fast enough that he couldn’t follow, and thus he saw the kick coming towards him, it still caught him off guard since he redirected his sword’s momentum downwards to try and slice off his foot, only to have his sword be interrupted by a hard object on top of his leg, “Leg weights, perhaps? Classic Taijutsu addict...” Konohuro thought as he backed off.


“Want to take this outside? The roof should provide enough room for the both of us to go all out.” Konohuro asked the young Kage, “Race you there!” Mars said as he rushed out the office. “Hmph, I suppose I’ll take my time then” Konohuro said as he casually walked out of the entrance, where the doors had once been hinged, but now lay on the floor.


Mars used the time he got to his advantage, having set up various clones and hiding them, so that he could ambush Konohuro, who had just walked up the stairs as the last of Mars’ clones finished hiding, and Mars himself was standing right in the middle of the roof, “You sure took long, are you tired already?” Mars said, but a second later he saw Konohuro running towards him with his sword in a thrusting position, “Enough talk, let’s get serious.” he said as he closed in rapidly on Mars, “Is he thinking of stabbing me with a katana? That’s… stupid.” keeping his kunai up and running towards Konohuro, as his shadow clones jumped out all at once to outnumber him.


Konohuro just had to land one hit on all the shadow clones, however, when it’s 11 opponents you’re up against, it’s not really to focus on all of them at once, especially with one eye, thus he decided to close his right eye and rely on his other senses, chakra sensing, hearing etc.


He swung and cleared his right side, then he ducked and stuck out his leg as his momentum carried him and caused 4 clones to fall down, he then quickly stood up and blocked the kunai of the 2 other opponents, one of which was the original Mars, with his O-Katana.

Mars took this opportunity to deliver a powerful kick right to Konohuro’s stomach, who stepped out of Mars’ way and stabbed the shadow clone that was left standing, then jumping to dodge the lowkick from Mars and threw kunai to finish off the 4 clones that were still getting up from their fall


Mars decided to step back, “He’s really skilled with that sword, but he’s also good at taijutsu, I suppose I’ll have to stop holding my speed back.” he took off the weights he had been wearing on his leg, hand and waist.


“Oh, fina-” Mars didn’t give Konohuro time to finish as he disappeared, only to appear 10 centimeters from Konohuro’s face, driving his fist into Konohuro’s stomach, “Shit! That hurt!”, but Konohuro regained his composure quickly and pushed Mars away, as Mars quickly spun around and swung the kunai’s tip towards Kono’s skull, who blocked Mars’ left hand with his right.


Mars spun the kunai in his hand so that the tip would be facing him, instead of Kono, then pointed the kunai towards Kono’s right eye, while driving his hand along Kono’s.
Konohuro blocked the kunai with his sword, but Mars grabbed his arm and used it as a leverage to pull Kono in for a roundhouse kick, Konohuro tried to block the kick with the flat of his sword, but was still pushed back by the force of the kick.


Konohuro was quick to recover, as he jumped forward and slashed downwards, which Mars dodged by stepping to his left, but Kono caught Mars off guard with a spin kick to his face.
“Hey, that hurt!” Mars sounded angry.


“Well, then you’re free to hurt me” Konohuro replied, “I can’t keep this up any longer, I’ll have to depend on genjutsu now”. “Oh, I will” Mars quickly cast handseals to Suiton: Suiryudan No Jutsu, and smashed his hands down on the ground to create a Water Dragon.


The Water Dragon was heading towards Konohuro quickly, and so was Mars, Konohuro cast Wind Bullet jutsu to disrupt the water dragon, as he couldn’t risk running away from the dragon and using any of the little stamina he had left, he stood there and waited for Mars to get close.


He used his O-Katana to feint a right swing, but grabbed Mars’ right wrist with his right hand, after dropping his katana, and punched Mars’ stomach and ribs with his elbow with all the strength he could muster, he then quickly threw Mars down, who landed on his back. Kono picked up his blade.

“I’ve had enough!” Mars activated 4 inner gates and in an instant started kicking Konohuro so fast that Kono had no time to react, and was violently thrown to the ground. “Get up!” Mars shouted angrily.


Konohuro did get up, but then Mars couldn’t find him, he was… gone.


 Mars felt a sharp pain in his chest, like something had stabbed him. He looked down to see his chest all bloody, and a long O-Katana sticking out of the wound. “W-When...did you…stab me?” Mars asked, speaking each word with a great deal of pain. “I put you in a genjutsu when I held your wrist” He replied “Unfortunately for you, you didn’t notice it”. “Huh, so...this is how I die? I can already imagine the headlines.” He said slowly


Mars suddenly started remembering events from a month ago. He was walking around in his village, only to have a poster stroke his curiosity, it read “Arena” in big, bold words at the top, while the rest of the poster had smaller text written over it “Do You Crave A Challenge? Is Daily Life Just Too Boring?” Mars knew that this was gonna be just what he was looking for, so he continued reading “Then Apply For Our Arena Project! We Pick Contestants From All Over The 12 Villages, Rogue or Village Shinobi, It Doesn’t Matter! This Is Your Chance For An All Out (Legal) Fight To The Death!” He was hesitant at first, mainly because it was open to both rogue and village shinobi, and that it was a fight to the death, but then he thought “I mean, how bad could it be?” and he headed for the registration office. The officers were surprised to have the Kage, but they calmed down after a bit.

Mars was regretting the decision he made that day “I’m sorry Remi, seems like I won’t be able to make it to that Kage summit after all.” he laughed silently.


Mars seemed to have relaxed from his previous, angry mood. “Well, I suppose I should’ve gone all out when I had the chance.” Mars said as he looked into the sky and exhaled one last time.


“Rest in Peace.” Konohuro slid his katana out of Mars’ chest and lay him down on the ground, closing his eyelids with his hand. “I didn’t expect to have to kill a kid today, but I suppose my job comes with risks and surprises.” He thought as he vanished from the roof.

"This is important...this means something.   .   ."

Sure...

[/quote]It's "This means something...this is important.   .   ."

Also, he meant what the acronym was, but I and some others are working on the acronym, so don't reveal it just yet.
